How much would it cost to replicate the Nexus elsewhere?
Not a brand-vs-brand slugfest. Just a plain kit list: what you'd have to buy from each of the major controller brands to match a BudMaster Nexus — the one hub that runs your whole grow and scales with Mini, Mid and Max channel routers — and what it'd cost you. Every price is lifted from a live UK retailer or manufacturer page and dated. If a number's stale, tell us.

Take the 60-second quiz — five questions, one honest recommendation.
Methodology. Prices were scraped directly from the linked retailer / manufacturer pages on the verified date above. UK retailers (ledgrowshop.co.uk, hydroponics.co.uk, 1-hydroponics.co.uk, futuregarden.co.uk) were used where available; otherwise we show the manufacturer's USD price and a GBP conversion at the stated rate. Shipping and VAT are not included in either side. Nothing here is a slight on the competitor brands — each serves a different customer and has strengths. Our job here is to be straight about what you get, what it costs, and what you have to stitch together.
